10 Totally Out-Of-Place Levels In Awesome Video Games

10. The MJ & Miles Stealth Levels - Spider-Man

Insomniac's Spider-Man is one of the greatest superhero video games of all time - a stunning exercise in wish fulfilment as players were granted the opportunity to sling around a teeming New York to their heart's content.

But for some reason, Insomniac felt that a game centered exclusively around Spider-Man might be too much of a good thing, and so forced players to partake in a series of mandatory stealth missions starring Mary Jane Watson and Miles Morales.

Not a single living soul bought a Spider-Man game to play dull, frustrating stealth missions as these characters, and while the levels were relatively short, ripping away the feature attraction numerous times throughout the game just felt totally unnecessary.

They're not even good stealth missions, either: the enemy A.I. is laughably shallow, and getting caught infuriatingly triggers an instant checkpoint restart.

Any mission which wrestles control away from the titular superhero in their own video game should be 100% optional, though thankfully Insomniac seemed to listen to the vocal complaints, as the Miles Morales-starring spin-off featured nothing of the sort.
